Judgment against ex-sportscaster over trip airfare

ORELAND, Pa.—A Montgomery County judge has entered a $3,300 judgment against former television sportscaster Don Tollefson over a sports trip he allegedly arranged.

The Philadelphia Inquirer reports (bit.ly/1lYru1d) District Judge Katherine McGill rendered the decision Thursday after Tollefson didn't show up for a hearing in the case of an Allentown couple who contend Tollefson sold them a 2013 Super Bowl package but never provided the airfare.

Bucks County prosecutors also are preparing felony fraud charges against the former Fox29 and 6ABC sportscaster on behalf of 100 other alleged victims. They tell police Tollefson sold them sports packages but didn't include the promised hotel rooms, airfare or game tickets. Tollefson sold the trips through various fund-raisers for charities with which he is associated.
